Ultimatee Fantasy Legal Considerations
At Ultimatee Fantasy, we are committed to operating a legally compliant platform for fantasy sports enthusiasts. This page outlines the legal framework, responsibilities, and regulations that apply to our services. By participating in contests on our platform, you agree to comply with all relevant laws and the terms outlined in this document.
1. Legal Status of Fantasy Sports in India
Fantasy sports are recognized as a game of skill rather than chance, which differentiates them from gambling. Under the Public Gambling Act of 1867, skill-based games are generally exempt from gambling laws in most Indian states, making fantasy sports legal. However, some jurisdictions impose restrictions on participation.
2. State-Specific Restrictions
Restricted States: Due to local regulations, residents of certain states—including Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Odisha, Telangana, Nagaland, and Sikkim—are not permitted to participate in paid contests on Ultimatee Fantasy. However, users from these states can still engage in free-to-play contests.
User Responsibility: It is your responsibility to ensure that you comply with the laws in your region. By participating in contests on Ultimatee Fantasy, you confirm that you do not reside in a restricted state and that your participation is legally permitted.
